Akshay Kumar Helping Out With ‘Mission Mangal’ Director Jagan Shakti’s Medical Expenses

Stepping in at the need of the hour, Akshay Kumar is reportedly taking care of Mission Mangal Jagan Shakti’s medical expenses. According to a source from HT, Akshay who worked with Jagan in his directorial debut has expressed the urgency to help out the director saying,

“Akshay is very attached to every director he has worked with, and doesn’t step back from helping them in any way, apart from the various social causes he is anyway associated with. He was taken aback when he heard this news, and made sure his team immediately reached out to Jagan’s family to take care of all the medical expenses.”

Dalip Tahil, who was also a part of Mission Mangal also told Mumbai Mirror, “I heard Akshay was among the first to know and got Jagan admitted to hospital, taking charge of things,” he said.

Earlier this week, the director was rushed to the hospital after he collapsed while with his friends. On being rushed to the hospital, his condition was termed serious with diagnosis of blood clotting in his brain. The filmmaker also reportedly underwent a surgery on January 27. 

Producer R Balki, updating on his health condition told Filmfare on Tuesday that Jagan is stable, quoting, “Jagan is doing well post the surgery and there is nothing to worry about now.”
